POLL – OWENS AHEAD of DOHENY

Owens Leads Matt Doheny in NY-21 Poll

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee today released a new Anzalone Liszt Research poll that shows Bill Owens with a twelve point lead over Republican repeat challenger Millionaire Matt Doheny. Owens is earning 50 percent of the vote in a three-way race.

In the initial three-way head-to-head for New York’s 21st Congressional district, Owens leads Doheny 50 percent to 38 percent with Green Party candidate Donald Hassig taking 4 percent. Even if Doheny were to pick up all 8 percent of undecided voters, he would still trail Owens by 4 points. Owens remains extremely popular with a better than 2-1 favorability ratio, and is better known across the district. Conducted July 29-31, the poll surveyed 400 likely voters and has a 4.9 percent margin of error.

Josh Schwerin is Northeast Press Secretary at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. He says “It’s clear that Bill Owens has cemented his reputation as an independent leader for middle class families in Upstate New York,”
